Cash, how on earth are you old enough to have a great-nephew?!? (That means one of your siblings is a grandparent, right?) I mean, I know that, like me, you're from Indiana, but...still!

Heh. My mom was a mother at 18, a grandmother at 36 and a great-grandmother at 56.

My sister is 10 years older than me. She's 46 and her daughter is 28 with three kids.

My grandmother and mom were pregnant at the same time with my eldest sister and my aunt.

My Grandmother was pregnant with what would have been her ninth child when her eldest was expecting his first.

Oh, and my sister, the grandmother has FIVE (soon to be six) grandkids from her three children.

So your Mother has (nearly) half a dozen great grand children?

She could get to a great-great, couldn't she?

'scuse me for a moment.

I had a very vivid dream last night about my ex and his family and woke up in a cold sweat. so getting an email from myspace just now saying i had a message from him was majorly nerve inducing. it's been 10+ years. can someone please tell my inner teenager to let it go?

She could get to a great-great, couldn't she?

She's 65 and her oldest great-grandchild is 8 years old so, yeah, possibly.

if you don't want to read it, don't. I support you either way.

At 75, following precident, she could hit great-great.

At 93 (which really isn't that far out nowadays) great-great-GREAT

Which would be so cool, really. Not worth hiding someone bc pills or anything...

it's impossible for me to NOT open it. really it was just a "thanks for sending my mom a card on the anniversary of dad's death" and a general "how's things". however, hot on the heels of my dream and the fact that he was my OTL makes me kinda stupid. it's also a bit weird that he's choosing to message me now. see, he and his wife(yes, wife) had a joint myspace account(LAME!) until about 3 days ago. or maybe i am reading too much into it...

While it would be cool, it's not likely. Mom's a severe diabetic who doesn't take good care of herself or regulate her blood sugar. HER mother died at 74 of cardiac arrest brought on by severe diabetes (after losing her leg to the disease).

But on the other hand, her father died just shy of 90 years old, with a full head of hair and with his fourth great-great grandchild on the way.

To make it a bit unfair, my grandfather smoked non-filtered cigarettes, worked in the coal mines from age 12, drank his own moonshine, was a severe alcoholic and a compulsive gambler, while his wife was a teetotaller.
